Join Ceasefire.ca for our annual day of action to call for the abolition of nuclear weapons, to be held on Wednesday, August 6th – the 69th anniversary of the horrific atomic bombing of Hiroshima in 1945.

Last year, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the state of affairs on human rights in the Palestinian Territories occupied by Israel since 1967, Richard Falk, called on Israel to end its siege of the Gaza Strip.

On April 24th, The Marshall Islands filed a landmark lawsuit in the International Court of Justice and the U.S. Federal District Court demanding that the nuclear states live up to their disarmament obllgations.
